《The Last Player》Chapter 2
Advertisement
it's a pity, for 30 years... every day more than 30 hours (game time) he spent.
but this was destiny, one that someone like him could not change. so has he given up?
of course not
....
'what? why haven't I been expelled?' Allen was confused. right now he was in a very dark place, as if he was floating in a space without light.
[Thanks for playing our game for 30 years, Allen noir]
"Eh? Shouldn't I be the one thanking you? If it wasn't for this game, I would have definitely lived as a corporate slave instead of a free adventurer in this world"
That's right, Allen lives in this world. he earns money from selling items or currency, using it for his daily life.
[Due to your participation, the prize has been awarded]
"What, a gift?"
Allen was confused, he knew very well that the God crown company was currently at its most critical period. what gifts do they want to give?
[Hope your second trip goes well]
"what? trip.. second time?" but before Allen could receive any complete information, his head suddenly hurt so much it felt like it was about to explode.
Memories of the past are now starting to repeat in his mind. he's been through a lot, both good and bad
he remembers having once set up a workshop (guild), but the workshop had to be disbanded because the members were getting smaller and smaller. they all switch to more profitable games
and at the time of disbandment, there was only 1 person who continued to be by his side. unfortunately that person has to leave the world forever
Since then, Allen has started his journey alone. saw the top players starting to disappear one by one.
and he arrived at a time when there were only less than 100 people playing this game. The 100 people are also mostly just newbies who are just trying or streamers who create nostalgic content

but Allen knew that they would disappear as time passed. And here... he was, alone in a game that had taken the world to a whole new level.
'what happened?' Allen seemed to have lost his consciousness, fell into an endless dark hole
...
in a busy bar
Noisy diners filled the room and a strong smell of alcohol wafted from a distance.
'Where am I?' The man in the black coat slowly woke up, holding his head which was in so much pain
"Eh? it doesn't hurt now-"
!
he woke up. look around and see himself
"what.. what happened?" He tried to remember. previously he was inside Creatia waiting for the server to close. Then why is he at the bar right now?
his voice also feels weird, it's like he is become younger and his body getting fresh again like when he was in his prime
"Impossible..." Allen was very surprised. this can't be as he thinks, right?
Allen then tried to reach into his pocket and found a rectangular sailing object and had a button on the side to turn it on
Allen is getting more and more shocked and suspicious. he then pressed the power button. and after that the screen shows a photo of a woman with black hair with a smile on her face. there is also an inscription that shows at 02:45 Friday, December 1, 2021
"I... really went back in time" Allen was getting more shocked and surprised, his breathing became heavy and his heart was beating fast
-
after a few minutes of calming down. Allen was finally able to think with a cool head.
Currently, December 1, 2021.
he is only 25 years old. and today, he was supposed to go with his friends to celebrate their graduation.

"Hah... they even had leave me alone" Allen sighed, considering the reckless attitude of his friends, it must be true that they left him. they must be very drunk and roaming the city right now
but there's something Allen is always thinking about more than anything right now
Creatia!
Creatia, the game he had been playing for 30 years and had to close the game forever. but right now, the game hasn't even been released yet
Allen still has 1 month...
"What should I do before the release?" Allen began to remember things that happened 30 years ago. if it existed in the past before virtual games existed, it might be impossible to remember in detail. but because of the brain-boosting effect of the virtual helmet, Allen can remember it like it happened yesterday
But Allen knew what he had to do and his goal was returned to the past.
Avoid closing the game and changing destiny!
but a moment later, the bar TV rang and showed the evening news brought by a man
Is the most awaited virtual reality game in the world, Creatia. will actually release the game in the near future? there are some rumors that this game will be released soon, but at this time the developer still hasn't confirmed it
-
"Huh, at least that's bullshit. Hasn't this project been in the works for 10 years since the initial notification?"
"What do you know? My father is one of the managers in the company that owns shares in the God Crown company. And he said this game was created for the first time 20 years ago"
"Haha, I'll bet they're doomed and embarrassed to publish it. Reality games with over 90% authenticity? That's just bullshit!" said the visitor in the chair behind Allen
'I see...' Allen smiled
Allen remembers that the world-shaking news was not released 1 month before the game's release, but 3 days!
that means Allen still has time. he should start gathering whatever he needs for his second journey
Whether it's dungeon tricks, powerful techniques, rare items or even how to kill a demon lord, he knows it!
"I promise to make this game not close the game for the second time"
saying that, Allen then got up from his seat and walked towards the exit of the bar

A Demon's Tail
He was born in a dark place, in a world where souls were traded like coins and a person's life wouldn't amount to much. A world where a single misspoken promise could rip you to shreds. On top of everything, his only soul was acting up and mocking him! It couldn't get much worse in his opinion... ——————————————————————————————— Reading Order of the Multiverse-Books ——————————————————————————————— Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently, I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur)

An Unwilling Monster
In the city of Kholakel, the highlight of the year for the upper classes is the annual monster pacification of the misty woods. Ostensibly it's a culling of the monster population to prevent them encroaching on urban areas, but it's an open secret that it's actually treated as more of a blood sport, the participants competing to score the most kills. After all, why else would the politicians and elites of the city bother to attend personally? Given the intense competition and high-tech weapons and gear in use, one might wonder how the forest has not yet been completely depopulated. As this year's culling approaches, a group of unfortunate children are about to discover the answer first-hand, but thanks to an unexpected twist of fate, one of them will score the chance to play the role of the hunter instead of the prey. This was an attempt at writing something darker than my usual fare. The story I actually ended up with isn't as mean to the MC as I'd originally planned out, to the point that I'm not sure the story deserves the horror/grimdark tags anymore, but this is still an unfair world with unambiguously evil antagonists. Chapters are short to start with, but get longer once the first act is over.
